Bad day at the office for Ronaldo

Cristiano Ronaldo could have made a difference against Denmark… but it wasn’t his day. The Portuguese international worked hard the whole game and was very visible on the pitch.

The Real Madrid player had two clear cut chances on goal but missed them both. The second one was the clearest. In the 77th minute he found himself one-on-one with Anderson, but CR7 shot wide.

Portugal’s number 7 tried his luck with two direct free kicks. The first, in the first half, he shot straight into the stands. The second was saved by Anderson. Throughout the match, Cristiano Ronaldo seemed worried, mainly due to the significance of the game for Portugal.

The Portuguese star gestured a lot to his teammates throughout the match, asking for more precise passing. In the first half, Ronaldo acted as a link between midfield and the forwards.

He made some goal passes and tried to create chances down the right. In the second half Ronaldo played more individually but he was unlucky in front of goal. He received a yellow card in the 90th minute for a dirty tackle on Kvist.
